Solid Marble Columns | Outdoor gardens, historic sites, events | - Marble (ASTM C1720 certified) - Compressive strength: 70 MPa (▲▲) - Weather resistance: 100+ freeze-thaw cycles (ASTM C666) | - Timeless aesthetic, high durability - Resists UV fading and corrosion | - Higher cost - Requires professional installation due to weight |
Stone Composite Columns | Commercial buildings, temporary decor | - Resin-stone composite - Compressive strength: 40 MPa (▲) - Lightweight (1/3 the weight of marble) | - Cost-effective, easy to transport - Customizable colors and finishes | - Less durable (prone to cracking) - Lower heat resistance |
Cast Stone Columns | Architectural facades, municipal projects | - Cement-based with stone aggregates - Compressive strength: 55 MPa (▲) - Mimics natural stone texture | - Affordable alternative to marble - Moldable for intricate designs | - Heavier than composites - May require sealing for longevity |
Poured Concrete Columns | Industrial structures, foundations | - Reinforced concrete (ASTM C39) - Compressive strength: 45 MPa (▲) - Porous surface (requires sealant) | - High load-bearing capacity - Cost-effective for large-scale projects | - Prone to cracking over time - Requires frequent maintenance |
Pre-Cast Concrete Columns | Construction projects, modular designs | - Factory-molded concrete - Compressive strength: 50 MPa (▲) - Uniform quality (ISO 9001 certified) | - Quick installation, consistent quality - Fire-resistant | - Limited customization - Susceptible to chipping |
Aluminum Columns | Modern event decor, lightweight structures | - Anodized aluminum (ASTM B117) - Lightweight (10 kg/m) - Corrosion resistance: Class 1200 hours (salt spray test) | - Easy to install, corrosion-resistant - Recyclable and eco-friendly | - Lower aesthetic appeal for classical designs - Less durable in extreme heat |
